ABSTRACTSix metal alloys were subjected to surface and creeprupture stress corrosion tests using NaCl- and Q-brines. Low-allou materials do not seem to be suitable as a barrier against salt brine attack due to the high surface corrosion rate. Creep-rupture strength corrosion was insignificant for the tested materials. Hastelloy C 4 showed no corrosion attack by salt brines in autoclaves at 200°C and 100 bar during 8 months of testing. Bentonite was shown to reduce the corrosion attack considerably.

Sulfolane-induced corrosion can lead to severe impairment in industrial systems. Therefore, determination of solvent corrosivity is valid. Under standard conditions, pure sulfolane is considered to be thermally stable and chemically inert, hence non-aggressive towards carbon/stainless steel. Unfortunately, the sulfolane-evoked corrosion of the industrial installations is observed for sulfolane-based systems polluted by small quantities of oxygen, water and some oxidizing agents. Moreover, sulfolane decomposition with formation of corrosive (by-)products can be escalated by some process parameters, e.g., temperature. The main objective of this study was to determine the corrosion resistance of AISI 1010 steel immersed in sulfolane at temperatures ranging from 25 to 230 °C. Evaluation of the corrosion damage was carried out using electrochemical techniques and scanning probe/electron microscopy, respectively. The general corrosion tendency, corrosion rate and surface corrosion degree were taken into account as well. It was noticed that the corrosion rate linearly increases with the enhancement of sulfolane temperature. Moreover, the interfacial reaction of steel with sulfolane resulted in the formation of corrosion product layer, which is a physical barrier between the corrosive environment and steel improving corrosion resistance of the latter. In fact, the increment of the sulfolane temperature caused a gradual breakdown of the protective layer and the increase in the corrosion degree of the investigated steel. Finally, it was found that the corrosion degree doubles approximately every 42 °C.

An oxide dispersion strengthened steels are one of the most promising high temperatures, and high performance advanced structural material being developed for future fast reactors and high-temperature Generation IV reactors. In the present work, the corrosion resistance and its correlation with the passive film compositions of 11% Cr F/M and 9-15% Cr (with Zr or Hf) ODS steels is examined and compared with AISI type 304L stainless steel in boiling 60 - 62% (~13 M) HNO3. The corrosion rate measured in 62% HNO3 for 240 h of 11% Cr F/M, 9% Cr and 15% Cr (Zr) ODS steels show high corrosion rate. On the other hand, low corrosion rate was observed in 304L stainless steel (0. 21 to 23 mm y-1). However, severe intergranular corrosion attack was revealed in type 304L SS after 240 h exposure, but none in ODS steels. Such an intergranular corrosion attack seen in type 304L stainless steel is undesirable. On the contrary, low corrosion rate (0.04 0.15 mm y-1) of 15% Cr (Hf) ODS steel in 3 M, 6 M and 9 M HNO3, comparable to that of type 304L stainless steel was observed. The improved corrosion resistance of 15% Cr (Hf) ODS steel was attributed to enrich (20 at. %) and protective Al2O3 layer formation in addition to Cr2O3 in the passive film.

Tungsten carbides (WC) are widely used as wear resistant components such as seal, valves, rings, nozzle and bearings. But in some processing operations, the environment necessarily includes severe corrosion or extremes of temperatures. In paper reveal, the corrosion performance of commercial cobalt tungsten carbide (WC-6%Co) and nickel tungsten carbide (WC-9%Ni) in seawater with 3.5% salinity. The experiment was performed in four different temperatures (20°C, 40°C, 60°C and 80°C) and the surface structure by corrosion attack was reveal under SEM. TheIcorrvalue of WC-9%Ni is lower than WC-6%Co, elucidate that WC-9%Ni is better in corrosion resistance compare to WC-6%Co. As the temperature increased, the corrosion rate for every material increased as expected. Decreasing in hardness value for both materials reveal that, the material’s hardness decrease after corrosion has attacked.

ABSTRACTPhosphorous has been shown to have a beneficial effect on reducing the corrosion rate of various metal alloys. This research was undertaken to determine by what mechanism the phosphorous is able to improve the corrosion resistance of metals. The amorphous copper-zirconium system was chosen for experimentation because the amorphous structure eliminates the complications due to crystalline defects. The zirconium forms zirconia (ZrO2), which is normally a protective surface oxide. Copper-zirconium alloys with and without phosphorous were melt-spun, and were tested in various electrolytes. In comparing Cu-42Zr-2P with Cu-4OZr, the results show that the corrosion rate of Cu-42Zr-2P is lower in 1N sulfuric acid, and significantly lower in 3.5 w/o NaCl, and in 1N HCl. ESCA analysis shows that phosphorous is present in the zirconia film, and has a valence of +5. Photocurrent experiments suggest that phosphorous alters the semiconductor properties of the zirconia film.

The electrochemical behavior of cast X-52 with different Sn content ranging from 0 to 1 wt. % was investigated using the methods of potentiodynamic test, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The immersion tests involved to examine the relationship between Sn addition and corrosion performance of cast X-52. In addition, the morphology and the compositions of surface corrosion products were analyzed using scanning electron microscope (SEM)/ energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Potentiodynamic polarization curves showed that the presence of Sn decreased the corrosion current density. EIS indicated that Sn-containing steels had higher polarization resistances. These results confirmed that Sn played a positive role in reducing corrosion rate in H2S-containing environment. However, the corrosion resistance decreased with increasing Sn addition. It was proved that Sn improved the corrosion resistance with only a small content and large amount of Sn might lead to an advance of the pit due to occurrence of more acidification. Moreover, a continuous inner O-rich layer adherent to the matrix was found for Sn-addition samples, which lead to a decrease of corrosion rate due to its compact characteristic, compared with porous sulfide formed on the outer surface.
